ton, Treasurer Anderson suggested that
the membership fee in that association is
$50, and that just now this association
lacks $50 of having enough to pay its
debts The treasurer stated that for the
safe keeping of this debt of S35 he was
required to give bond in the sum of $1,000,
and that he would'very much like to have
the privilege of handling few dollars at
least. At pre- sent be has no inducement

Marriage. it seems to me, should
be waited for, not sought. Who
knows round what corner his des-
tiny may be hiding-at what un.
expected turn he may come upon
the face above all faces for him!
To put aside, as far as possible,
the thought of marriage until
compelled to think of it by some
strong and special attraction to-
ward some special person, is wiser
than to be seeking in every chance
acquaintance the possible husband
or wife. 'We shall meet the peo-
pie who are coming to meet u.s.
no matter in what far of land
their Journey towards us begins.
Perhaps parents are more blame
for worldly marriages than we are
apt to think. How constantly we
hear the terra married well ap-
piled, not to character, congeniali-
ty or true fitness. but to comfor.
table income. And vet there is
something to be said for the stern
parent of the novels, with his
hard facts This old adage, that
when poverty comes in at the door
love flies out at the window is on.
" true of small aud poor natures
natures incapable OF a great
love; but it is, nevertheless, true
that to be loved it is necessary to be
lovely, and that it is far more diff
cult to be lovely when we are hard
pressed by want and rendered fret
full by care and overwork. HUI.
man creatures cannot build their
nest as inexpcnsively as the birds
do; end not even the scant hospi.
tality of homestead caves or or,
chard boughs awaits their fledg-
lingS. To marry for money or for
any object whatever save and ex-
cept immortal and all-powerful
love, is to perjure ard debase the
human heart; but to marry with
out some provision for the future,
such as money, or moneys worth
in we'll furnished mind and a ca.
pacity for skilled labor, is to defy
common sense and invoke the evil
fates.

Council praying that that august

Pet superstitions of the Fair.

The other evening went to party and
tried to find out the pet superstition of
each girl / danced with. And they all
have them. One wouldn't go under q
leaning ladder, another would be sure of
becoming i'll if she saw the moon over her
left shoulder, another would not read an
epitaph for fear of losing her memory.
One girl told me she could stop dogs
howl any time by taking off her shoe and
splitting in it. In drawing her kerchief
from her bosom a narrow slip of paper
futtered to the ground, on which were
some hieroglyphics. "Oh, my charm!'
she exclaimed. l supposed she had lost
an article Of jewelry, and was searching
about for it when she seized upon the
scrap OF paper as though it were deed to
a San Diego corner lot. My curiosity was
aroused, and she explained that it was
charm insuring success in undertakings,
purchased by her at great price from an
Egyptian fortune teller in Paris, and that
its possession alone amounted to nothing,
but it must be put into the pocket or in
the bosom of dress during the recital Of
an Egyptian verse. If one failed to re-
member that, however, the Lords prayer
might be substituted.

The Chicago Tribune has some pun
gent and truthful remarks, under the
caption, Sugar Trust Monopoly"
The "salt trust" came frat, and now
follows the sugar trust" The duty on
the refined sugar is S11a cents a pound
which is just about the price of the
Cuban cane or German beet sugar,
making the protection for the ref1ners
100 per cent. No foreign refined sugar
can be sold for less than seven cents
per pound after paying the tariff
thereon. Secured i'll this manner
from all danger of competition from
other countries, the retiners have
combined to suppress competition AT
home and charge upto full limit OF
the excessive tariff. The government
is really partner in this undertaking.
1t collects The enormous sum OF fifty
one millions annually i'll duties on
low grade sugars-revenues wholly
needless and collected only that a
dozen sugar refining concerns may
receive their bpuuty nf fifty millions
more and organize "trusts" for the
practice of further extortion. The
bounty does not go to labor, but to
make up vast fortunes TO he squan-
dered by spendthrift dudes and dissi-
pated heirs. Why should any bust
ness be fostered and protected in
this outrageous manner at the cost
of the consuming public?"

Possibly the visit of railroad COM
missioner Gibbs To the towns along
this line of road is to result in some
thing after all. In some towns Mr..
Gibbs was treated with supreme in
difference and the people, though
having much of which to complain,
took that means Of showing that they
had lost all faith in the power or dis
position of the commission to serve
them. In other places complaints
were numerous and outspoken. Taken
together these things must have con-
WINGED Mr.. Gibbs that the COM
mission of which he is member can
trifle with public opinion and public
demands no longer without having
the righteous Indignation of the peo-
pie become. manifest to most danger
Gus and uncomfortable extent.
Whether this view of the case is cor
rect or not we can not be certain, bat
at any rate there have been recent
signs of life in the railway COM
mission. The Manitoba and Northern
Pacific roads have been ordered to re-
duce their passenger rates to three
cents per mile. This is one impor-
tant step taken. The TRIBUNE wishes
to give the commissioners full credit
for it and will watch anxiously to see
them get move on themselves again
There are many other needed reforms
which we hope they will waste nc
time in bringing about.
